He suffered from asthma and while seated in a chair turned on the gas In a gas stove and as he leaned over to light it was seised with a fit of coughing and over come by the fumes. for the home, on the grounds that It was too far from the" center of Elks population. When the matter was brought before the grand lodge, through formal con sideration of the report of the homo commission, the protests were stilled and the delegates quickly voted to ap propriate $250,000 and authorised the committee to begin preparations imme diately toward the construction of a home, not to exceed In cost the sum ap propriated. A tax of 25 cents was then levied against each member of the or der to assist In defraying the cost of building the borne. Amount to Be Xalsed. By the tax levy It Is expected that $93,000 approximately will be raised, which, in addition to the $78,000 build ing fund already... in the treasury, will give the commission a total of $169,000 in cash for expenditure In the work within the next year. The remainder of the sum necessary to complete th home probably will be drawn from the general fund.

It Is a foregone conclusion that moat of the money will be expended through sub ordinate lodges in Colorado and the southwest, whence the majority of suf ferers from tuberculosis hasten in the hope of prolonging their lives. The grand lodge made the appropria tion following the consideration of the report of the committee on tuberculosis which had been appointed to look Into the matter and recommend whether a national sanitarium should be erected. The committee reported against tho sanitarium scheme a not feasible and suggested that any Elk, victim of tho disease, should bo cared for at private sanitariums at the grand lodge's ex pense, in case he is unable to pay his own way. In addition to prohibiting "goat rid ing," the grand lodse also decided that members of any subordinate lodge hav ing a low Initiation fee, who wished to affiliate with a lodge having a higher initiation fee, shall be required to pay th difference between them.

Fully deter mined that Coquille shall have as good streets as any city in Oregon, the city council has, In addition to the street work already under way, Issued bonds for further Improvements of the streets and for the Installation of a new sewer system throughout tho downtown sec tion.
